Unfortunately this also cleared out all .lnk shortcuts in the Start Menu folder. Will be interesting to see if Microsoft can restore all removed shortcuts and other files as promised.

They can up to a certain point. MSFT Defender logs has some info with regards what has been deleted, but some other information are missing (such as command line parameters associated with the lnk file)
